I've just booked Sunday night in a B&B in Dunwich so will travel back Monday. I did it back in '09 but on the roadie - though loads of people did do it fixed so it's perfectly do-able... I just prefer to have the luxury of freewheeling down the the (few) hills.
Also - the coach I was on had a terrifyingly bad driver. We almost crashed on numerous occasions, at one point he braked so hard I flew forward in my chair - was buckled in but it spoilt the nice snooze I was having. Another reason to stay an extra night and get the train the next day!
